Hello there. To solve this question, we'll have to remember some properties about ratios.
A car went 262 miles on 11 gallons of gas. We want to determine how many miles to the gallon does the car get, rounded to the nearest mile.
In this case, we'll have to divide the numbers (take the ratio between miles and gallons), in order to determine how many miles far the car can get with 1 gallon of gas.
Therefore, we have
[tex]\dfrac{262}{11}\approx23.81[/tex]Rounding the answer to the nearest integer, we get
[tex]24\text{ miles to the gallon}[/tex]
